Reading through The Digital Spy, it looks like there's another casualty in the talent-free zone.

Poor spike-haired crooner Gareth Gates will have to go back to singing in karaoke bars to make a living. Thankfully, BMG have terminated his contract. Although, I wonder how they'll ever have enough material to compile that Best of Gareth Gates in about 12 years times (still, doesn't look like that stopped Peter "one hit wonder" Andre from getting a full CD's worth of Greatest Hits released recently).

Hopefully the era of armchair record label A&Ring is coming to an end and labels start releasing decent material again... soon.

Spotify

Got Spotify? Why not have a listen to some of the playlists I've compiled:
